Powwow Words
These words are in the Odawa Anishinaabe language from
the Michigan area - different dialects of Anishinaabe such as Ojibwa, Ojib-Cree,
Saulteaux, Pottowatomi and other regional dialects will be different. Many
thanks to Kenny Pheasant, Howie Webkamigad, the elders of LTTBO and others. We
welcome you to write us and we will add words in other native languages.
